Ingredients
Scale
- 1 head Cauliflower, cut into florets
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Wash and thoroughly dry the cauliflower, then cut it into medium-sized florets for even cooking.
- In a large bowl, toss the florets with olive oil to coat them evenly. Sprinkle the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper over the cauliflower and mix until well distributed.
- Toss in the panko breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese (if using). Stir well to ensure the florets are evenly coated.
- Spread the coated cauliflower in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between the florets.
- Place in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy hot as a snack, side, or part of a bigger spread!
Notes
- Parmesan cheese can be omitted for a vegan version of this recipe.
